Coffee and tea question

[Richard White]

Hi all. I have only used drop coffee machines in my two units at the beach. These are mostly "true" VRs, however, I still have a lot of off-season bookings as well. We just bought 2 Keurig machines and a few pods, but I wanted to ask what others provide as far as coffee, tea, condiments, etc. Do you just have a large display of various flavors of k-cups, and do you see a large part of them disappear? How many options is too many? Thanks in advance!

I have drip coffee makers as I've run into problems with Keurig machines being temperamental.  Also, my rental is geared towards families - a pot of coffee is faster/easier/cheaper than ~6 Keurig pods/keeping up with replacements!  I buy the big bags of (quality) ground coffee at Costco, and a couple of assorted boxes of teas to keep on hand.  I think it's a nice unexpected bonus for the guests, and doesn't cost me much or need to be replaced often.  I also provide sugar, olive oil, cooking spray, and a spice rack as my house has a full kitchen that guests like to use.
